GREETINGS, I'M MARINA!
Imagine losing your strength, your independence—even your ability to walk without support. Now imagine being a physical therapist on top of that.
That was my reality when Peripheral Neuropathy took over my life.
I went from walking, running and training to losing my independence. I couldn't drive, I couldn't work, and my body became weak and unrecognisable. The pain was relentless, and eventually I found myself relying on mobility aids and struggling to care for my two young children.
Despite searching for answers and seeing specialist after specialist, I was repeatedly told things that left me feeling hopeless.
But I refused to accept that as my future.
SO HOW DID I DO IT?
Through a combination of mindset, movement and a holistic approach to my recovery, I improved my condition by around 90%. I regained my strength, my mobility and control over my life.
No more wheelchair. No more walking sticks. No more morphine.
I can drive again, exercise again and enjoy a healthy weight once more.
Despite everything I was told, I refused to believe that suffering was my only option.
And today, that experience shapes how I help other women.
Through Purific's 3R System — Recover, Remodel and Revive — my approach focuses on understanding the individual, supporting their recovery and helping them work towards greater strength, mobility and confidence.
Every woman's journey is different. That's why we begin by understanding where you are, what is affecting your life and what getting better would mean to you.
Whether that means getting back to gardening, dancing, exercising, moving independently or simply feeling more comfortable in your own body, the goal is to help you move towards your own definition of recovery.
Today, I bring my compassion, clinical expertise and lived experience to every woman I work with.
My mission is to help women find their way back to strength, freedom and joy through Thoughtless, Fearless Movement.
Let's take this journey together.

Experience
With over 21 years of experience in health, wellbeing and physical therapy, I have supported individuals living with a wide range of acute and long-term health conditions not using generic exercises or another set of temporary fixes; using high-end functional rehab, evidence-based and non-invasive, built to resolve the root cause of your pain and dysfunction.
I have trained as a NASM Corrective Exercise Specialist and GP Exercise Referral Specialist, so I can design programmes safely even for those managing medical conditions. I've served as an NHS Mobility Clinic Manager and worked as a Sports Therapist for Dunstablian RFC. More recently, I've been mentored by Dave O'Sullivan, England Rugby's physiotherapist (across two World Cups).
The goal is greater than the struggle. Let's find your root cause.
